Chapter 165
Episode 165: Is this paradise??
Jin Ha-ryeong's sword caused a series of changes..
The opponent, unable to block her dazzling swordsmanship, eventually admitted defeat..
“I lost.”
Jin Ha-ryeong raised his hand to everyone as the sword aimed at his neck was recovered..
A thunderous roar erupted..
“Jin Haryeong is the best!”
“Jin Ha-ryeong is cool!”
“The winner is Jin Ha-ryeong!”
“Hubuk Ilmi Jin Ha-ryeong!”
But today, the words I was waiting for were not heard. She looked around at the soldiers, but Geomyeon was nowhere to be seen..
‘Am I hurt a lot??’
I heard that the master that Geomyeon serves was injured in the Battle of Palgang. Even though I knew that was probably why I couldn't come, I still felt sad for some reason. I felt like I wanted you to come for a moment, even when I was away..
‘You can't do that when you're sick..’
As she came off the stage with such regret, an unexpected person was waiting for her..
“congratulations on your victory.”
It was a courtier. Normally I would have made a firm impression from the beginning, but today for some reason I treated him gently..
“thank you.”
“If Jean Sozer wins, I will hold a separate celebration..”
“Thank you just for your words. Then I have to prepare for the next meeting..”
After Jin Ha-ryeong lightly suppressed his power, he left unarmed..
Jo Shin somehow felt like she was treating him more gently than usual..
‘Was he right??’
He said he knows women well, but just one congratulation changed the way he treated them..
‘This guy is a lot more useful than he looks..’
But that was his mistake.
The reason Jin Ha-ryeong was comfortable with him was because yesterday, during a walk with his grandfather, he received confirmation that there would be no arranged marriage..
In that case, there is no longer any need to create an awkward relationship with the courtiers. Anyway, you won't have to see his face once the battle of Soryong is over. I will join the elite organization of the Murim League and begin new activities..
‘My friend, I hope you get better soon..’
Only then will you be able to hear welcoming voices amidst the cheering shouts..
* * *
At that time, Geomugeuk was going somewhere with the master..
“Aaaah! It's too fast!”
Geommugeuk ran lightly carrying Seo Dae-ryong on his back. Seo Dae-ryong, who was on his back, was only screaming..
Even though it was fast, it was too fast. No matter how much light I used, it was shocking that a person could run so fast. And that too by carrying yourself..
Seo Dae-ryong couldn’t even open his eyes. Even when I barely opened my eyes, everything around me went by so quickly that I felt dizzy. What on earth do you see that makes you run like this? I felt like I was going to pass out because I was so anxious that I would hit a tree or a rock at any moment..
What was even more surprising was that even during this time, his body felt extremely comfortable. Psychologically, he was scared and anxious, but his injured body was surrounded by the energy of sword dance so that it would not shake while running..
‘Is this possible? He runs so fast and protects me too.?’
It was something you would never believe if you had not experienced it yourself. Seo Dae-ryong had been surprised by Geommugeuk many times, but he was even more surprised that there were still such surprises left. No, there was another surprise. I didn't even rest while running. How much inner strength is there??
‘Maybe it was a dream. Could it be that I passed out on stage and was dreaming? omg! Could it be that I’m dead??’
After having all kinds of delusions on the back of Geommugeuk, I finally arrived at my destination. The place the two arrived was a rural village far away from the Murim Alliance..
“Ouch! Is this paradise??”
Seo Dae-ryong, who came down from his back, stumbled and collapsed on the spot. I was so dizzy I thought I was going to die. He took a deep breath..
“ah! I think I'll buy it now. It's paradise. People must live with their feet on the land..”
Seo Dae-ryong brushed his tangled hair and looked around. He was nervous inside. It was a journey that took place despite the hellish training, but it was said that sword dance performance would take you to paradise, so they brought me to this village..
“Let's take a break over there.”
There was a table at the entrance of the village, and a child was lying down reading a book..
Seo Dae-ryong felt a strange feeling. After rushing in such a hurry, why bother resting on a bed like this? And that too, on a bench at the entrance to a neighborhood where a child is reading a book.?
Then something even more strange happened. Geommugeuk spoke to the child who was lying on the bed..
“My child, go and bring me a bottle of wine made from bugs..”
At the end of the sword dance, the child who had been reading a book stood up, yawned, and asked:.
“Who introduced you here??”
Through this conversation, Seo Dae-ryong was able to find out. It turns out that what Geomugeuk said earlier was some kind of secret word..
“I came from Protestantism.”
Seo Dae-ryong was surprised when it was revealed that Geommugeuk was a demonic religion. This is because I have never revealed my identity since I started this job..
On the other hand, the child was not surprised at all, as if he had no idea where Shingyo was..
“Tell them that it's a private matter, not an official matter, so you can handle it as usual..”
“yes. Please wait.”
The child disappeared somewhere. Finally, Seo Dae-ryong asked Geommugeuk..
“Where are we??”
“entrance to paradise.”
“It doesn't look like paradise at all.?”
“What kind of paradise do you think of??”
“well.”
“I just pictured a feast and drinks in a room full of beautiful women.?”
Seo Dae-ryong was startled..
“No..”
Seo Dae-ryong's face turned red as he tried to deny it. I guess I was thinking of a more erotic paradise..
“Sentient beings, listen! Most places in the world that seem like paradise are hell. Hehehe.”
“The great monk who has attained enlightenment, please stop going in and call our monks. ah! Where am I?!”
“You'll know when you go.”
After a while, the child came back.
“He told me to bring him with me. please follow me.”
Geommugeuk and Seo Dae-ryong followed the child..
A camp was set up along the winding road. If you didn't know the exact location of the gate, it was a strategy that had you wandering around and going somewhere else..
After passing through the Jinbeop, there was a huge manor..
a signboard there.
Paradise (Paradise)).
It was a paradise using the atom of a wish, not the atom of a manor. It means the wish to be reborn in paradise..
“It's truly paradise?”
“I told you I was going to paradise?”
There was an old woman standing there following the child..
At first glance, she prayed which was unusual, and her back was so straight that it would not be appropriate to call her an old woman. However, she was badly injured and had bandages on her head and arms..
“I came from Protestantism?”
“yes.”
“Evidence of Protestantism?”
The sword dance unleashed magical energy. It was a demonic energy with enough force that she could trust it..
“stop! Why are you giving off such bad energy? Tsk! Tsk!”
The old woman took salt and sprinkled it on her body. She didn't seem to be afraid of the demonic cult at all..
“Compared to his age, his level is very profound..”
“thank you.”
“Why did you bother to reveal your identity??”
“No matter how much you try to hide it, you will know anyway..”
“Do you know enough about me? Then the story will be easy. what do you want?”
Geommugeuk looked at Seo Dae-ryong and said..
“Please let this friend win this Soyong war..”
Seo Dae-ryong looked at the sword dance in surprise..
“If I ask you to let me win, will I be able to win??”
“maybe?”
“yes?”
The old woman approached Seo Dae-ryong, whose eyes were wide open. She limped as if her leg was also injured..
The old woman extended her hand to Seo Dae-ryong..
“hand!”
She injured her right arm and held out her left arm..
“Oh, I hurt my left arm..”
“So will this old man stick out his sore arm??”
“no. So what I mean is, can we not shake hands?.”
But the old woman still held out her hand. The moment Seo Dae-ryong reluctantly grabs her arm.
The old woman jerked Seo Dae-ryong’s injured arm and lifted it up..
“Ahhhhh!”
Despite Seo Dae-ryong's screams, the old woman moved her arms around wildly..
“The arms are still together well..”
“Ahhh! I'm dying!”
“I'm going to die!”
“I thought I was going to die from pain!”
“Just by looking at it, it's a tough-looking face..”
Seo Dae-ryong pouted his mouth and looked at the sword dance. I asked with a look on my face who this damn old woman was, but Geommugeuk just smiled..
“Try swinging it once.”
“I don't like it?”
The old woman seemed to be approaching Seo Dae-ryong quickly, and then she grabbed Seo Dae-ryong's arm again and waved it around. Her movements were so fast that Seo Dae-ryong could not stop them..
“Do you still hate it like this? Even if this happens?”
“Ahhh! No, great! Please save me! I will do it!”
Only then did the old woman let go of her arms..
Wiping away the tears that flowed from pain, Seo Dae-ryong pulled out the sword..
The old woman who had been watching Seo Dae-ryong eat herbivorous food for a while shook her head..
“it's hard. You can't beat Jin Ha-ryeong..”
The old woman was well aware of the current situation of Xiaolongzhen. He knew exactly the skills of Jin Ha-ryeong, the candidate for the championship, and he also knew Seo Dae-ryong's skills from the way he wielded the sword..
“I came here because I was having a hard time. Aren’t you the one who makes the impossible possible??”
“Well, it depends on how much you pay. How much can I pay??”
The price of sword dance was not negotiated..
I handed the 500,000 nyang I had brought to the old woman..
“It's 500,000 nyang..”
Then Seo Dae-ryong was surprised..
“Wait a minute! Are you sure you were looking for that money to spend on me??”
“okay.”
“No. No way!”
Seo Dae-ryong thought that Geommugeuk would use it for himself until he found the money, but he didn't know that he would use all the money..
“It's my money, why can't you do it??”
“Anyway, no. It's giving up on the path you said you wanted to take. It was all just nonsense. I am happier like this. 500,000 cat?”
Seo Dae-ryong sent a message.
- And that old lady is strange, isn’t she? At first glance, you can see that he is a quack who pretends to be mysterious. Who can heal someone when their own body hurts like that? Your body... … omg! I just ate a bug!
The old woman was sitting on a rock and massaging her limbs while chewing something..
“Investigator Seo. You can make money anytime, but this opportunity will never come again..”
“I don't like it. Please don't spend this much money on me. It's not even worth 50,000 nyang..”
“Also, it's worth the money. 'Cause that's the cost of a man becoming a real warrior.”
“It takes will and courage for a man to become a warrior, not 500,000 nyang..”
“Don't feel pressured. You can just work hard as an investigator from now on. Sometimes, when there is a situation where we need to save our school from a crisis, we save it. Well, that's okay then.”
“That's a burden to say.!”
“If you think too much, life becomes difficult. I just live the way I feel at the time. You said you wanted to win, right? I want to win. All we have to do is fit our hearts perfectly..”
At that time, the old woman snatched the slip from Geommugeuk's hand..
“I will accept treatment..”
“No way!”
Seo Dae-ryong approached her to take the slip back from her, but stopped in shock..
The old woman just glanced at him, but her body stiffened under the pressure..
“There are only a few days left until the next meeting of this bastard.?”
“seven days left.”
“Seven days. Time is tight. Let's start now.”
The old woman limped into the building..
Just the two of them, Seo Dae-ryong quickly asked..
“Who the hell is that person? Please tell me to treat myself.!”
“How's your arm??”
“Anyway. It hurts more. uh?”
Seo Dae-ryong tried to move his injured arm. My arms were moving better than when I first arrived. The old woman didn't just wave her arms randomly..
“Huh? It hurts less?”
Then a surprising name came out of Geommugeuk’s mouth..
“That person is a loyal doctor..”
Seo Dae-ryong was surprised. It was a name he had heard of before..
“Did this person really exist??”
“okay.”
There was a rumor like a legend floating around in the martial arts world. There was a rumor that there was a god who was good at handling bugs, and that his medical skills were so good that he could cure all kinds of diseases using bugs and even bring the dead back to life..
There was even a rumor that his skills were better than that of the Heavenly Demon God Cult's Demon Doctor or the Murim Alliance God. That wasn't confirmed, but at least one thing was certain. Since Chung-i himself was a master who had reached his peak, it could be said that he knew the martial artist's body better among the three..
“But he is a person who reveals too much money and is called a money swindler.?”
“If it weren't for this person, I wouldn't be able to recover you in such a short period of time..”
“How on earth do you know this person? Ah, that's enough. It's too expensive.”
“Strictly speaking, all that money didn't go to you, so you don't have to worry about it..”
“yes? What do you mean by that??”
At that time, the door to the building opened and Chung-ui shouted..
“What should I do if I don’t come? Time is money, money!”
Geommugeuk and Seo Dae-ryong hurried into the building..
As Seo Dae-ryong entered inside, his expression naturally frowned. There were bottles full of bugs everywhere, and all kinds of bugs were stuffed on the walls. The smell was so bad that I had to cover my nose..
Seo Dae-ryong had to drink the medicine he was given without knowing what ingredients it contained..
“What if it's poison? No, this is definitely poison, poison.!”
Seo Dae-ryong refused to drink with an anxious face..
“Then you will pay the most expensive money in the world and die in the most luxurious way. It will be a death that remains in the Murimsa Temple..”
Chungui washed off all the Geumchang medicine he had applied and applied a new medicine. I don't know, but it was definitely a medicine extracted from all kinds of bugs..
A new bandage was put on it, and the method of wrapping it was completely different from before..
Then he laid him down on a heated stone bed..
“Take a deep sleep.”
Perhaps it was because of the medicine or the hot bed, but Seo Dae-ryong could not stand the pouring water..
“Oh, this isn't it... … It’s not… … Footnote, we are deceived…….”
So Daeryong Seo fell asleep as if possessed..
While the treatment was going on, Geommugeuk looked at all the bugs he was raising in the backyard. Hundreds of barrels were piled up, filled with all kinds of strange bugs..
Chungui came and stood next to the sword dance and said while looking at the bug in front of him..
“Even though it looks like nothing special, it has a poison that kills you instantly within half a time if bitten. I'm fine because I'm resistant to poison, but you're in danger..”
Chung-ui opened the box and took out the bug, saying it was dangerous. The poisonous insect flapped its wings quickly, wanting to jump out at any moment. She asked coldly while holding the poisonous insect in front of Geommugeuk’s face..
“If you knew about me, you would have roughly known the cost, so why did you pay so generously??”
